Norland Undergraduate Prospectus 2022/23
46
Fees and bursary First-year tuition fees for September 2022 entry will be £14,990 for UK students (frozen at the 2020/21 and 2021/22 levels) and £17,000 for international students (frozen at the 2021/22 level). This fee includes the cost of all compulsory offsite visits and study folders. Travel costs to campus or placement are met by the student; however, a contribution to placement travel is made where a placement is more than 8 miles from Bath. Fees for successive years 2023/24 and 2024/25 are subject to annual review and may increase by up to 5% or the Consumer Price Index rate (if higher) each year. Tuition fees are invoiced in approximately equal amounts termly and are due on the first day of each term unless paying by direct debit to an agreed instalment plan. UK students may be eligible for a student loan to cover part of the cost of their tuition fees, which will be paid direct to Norland. Students are responsible for paying the difference between the fee loan borrowed and the total tuition fee payable to Norland. Students are eligible for maintenance loans to contribute towards living costs. Subject to suitable interest, Norland also offers all students optional Spanish lessons and a Makaton course. There are additional charges for these courses.

Our Value for Money statement outlines the many ways in which Norland delivers 100% employment opportunities, a value-added curriculum and lifelong support for its graduates, as well as clearly presenting how tuition fees are spent.
